In the hometown of Jinmen, too many stories have passed in the years of 2000. Today, Clay Figurine Zhang and Yangliuqinghua have become the labels of Tianjin; Goubuli Steamed Buns and 18th Street Twist are also unique flavors of Tianjin. However, all old Tianjin people know that the pure Tianjin flavor is in Ancient Culture Street.

Tianjin Ancient Culture Street is a national 5A-level scenic spot. It is also the only five-star pedestrian street in my country. The street is full of folk customs and the atmosphere of the market.

Goubuli steamed stuffed bun has 18 folds, thin skin and large filling, and its taste is famous both at home and abroad.

The Tianhou Palace is located in the center of the ancient culture street. The Tianhou Palace, which was built in 1326, is the landmark of Tianjin Wei. The Tianhou Palace has spacious pavilions and wide pool corridors. It not only enshrines the powerful Tianhou Empress, but also displays thousands of pieces Ancient cultural relics, such as Tianjin city bricks in the Ming Dynasty, water transport models and water machines in the Qing Dynasty, etc., are also covered with various mythological paintings on the screen walls in the palace.

Tianjin is the terminal point of grain transportation by sea, from which the sea transportation is transferred to the inland river. At that time, there were frequent shipwrecks. Kublai Khan, the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, ordered the construction of Tianhou Palace near the Sanchahekou Wharf on the Haihe River outside the east gate of the ancient city of Tianjin. After that, every time the tank boats went to sea, they would hold a ceremony to worship the Queen of Heaven here, praying for blessings and safety to the goddess.

Every year on March 23rd of the lunar calendar is the birthday of Empress Tin Hau, the Empress Dowager Tin Hau in Tin Hau Palace will dress up in costumes and celebrate her birthday with loud gongs and drums accompanied by stilts and lion dances. Being here at this time, you will know what Tianjin flavor and cultural flavor are.

Every year during the Spring Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Lantern Festival and other festivals, the Ancient Culture Street will be a bustling ocean. At this time, walking in the street, you can see the performances of craftsmen who knead dough, draw sugar paintings, and make clay sculptures in the street. , On the theater floor, there will also be performances of traditional folk jokes.

Folklore is the most magnificent scenery in the ancient culture street. The Tianjin Intangible Cultural Heritage Exhibition Hall next to Tianhou Palace is a must-see, where the brilliant achievements of Tianjin culture are displayed.

"Tianjin Memory"-Tianjin Intangible Cultural Heritage Exhibition Hall introduces Tianjin's existing national, municipal, district and county intangible cultural heritage to people with pictures and texts, so that people can understand the history and enjoy it at the same time. kind.

The first floor of the exhibition hall is the history of the city, and the second floor is the art and culture of Tianjin. Tianjin has always attached great importance to and protected its own cultural heritage, especially the intangible cultural heritage.

Tianjin's cross talk, Pingju, Hebei Bangzi of the Wei school, Jingyun drum of the Luo school, Kuaiban script of the Li school, and Leiqin opera all have local characteristics. Now some of the cross talks we see in the Spring Festival Gala still use the classics of the older generation . These classic performing arts are also skills or lifestyles that the people have accumulated in their production and life.

The older generation has special memories of Ancient Culture Street. As time goes by, these memories are still deposited in people's bones, with endless vicissitudes, which are unforgettable and memorable.


The Tianjin described by Feng Jicai is vivid, and a thin book contains the ordinary or soul-stirring life of ordinary people. Tianjin used to be brilliant, but Shili Yangchang was just passing by in a hurry and failed to penetrate deeply into the life of the city. Only the bell tower, which has been weathered by wind and rain, is still standing in the city despite being demolished twice, overlooking the city. A city full of street style.

全国各地有不少鼓楼,北京,南京,西安的都颇有名气.天津的这一座鼓楼修建于明朝永乐二年,天津设卫筑城,当时这座"卫城"只是土围子,经历了大约九十年,弘治六,七年才砌成砖城.

The Drum Tower is in the south of the downtown area, and it is no longer the original Drum Tower. In 1900, the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded Tianjin, and the city wall was forced to be demolished in the second year, and the Drum Tower was gradually crumbling until 1921, when the Drum Tower was demolished and rebuilt. In 1952, the Drum Tower was demolished due to the passage of the road, and it was not rebuilt until 2000, which is the Drum Tower that people see now.

In fact, this Drum Tower is not a single building. Perhaps it is more appropriate to call it the Drum Tower Museum or the Tianjin History Museum. The restored wall of the Drum Tower is displayed in the museum, and the stone plaque "Gongbei" on the north gate of the Drum Tower rebuilt in 1921 is placed under the wall.

The museum shows the changing process of the construction, renovation and demolition of the old city of Tianjin in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and describes the history of the city's internal and external offices, residential buildings, merchants, streets, and temples.

The physical objects and texts in the museum introduce in detail the main roles played by Changlu salt merchants and their descendants in the formation and development of Tianjin's urban culture. Scholars and celebrities who came from south to north recited poems and Fu, appreciated calligraphy and paintings, published books, etc. Cultural activities, an overview of the establishment of Tianjin Wei School in the Ming Dynasty, and the emergence of prefecture, government and county schools in the Qing Dynasty. From these old photos of Tianjin in the last century or even earlier, we can clearly feel the changes of the times.

In the exhibition hall, there are all the plaques of the chamber of commerce and the street and lane numbers in the old city.

Speaking of Tianjin, what do you think of? The centuries-old Beiyang University and Xiaoyang Building, the traditional New Year pictures of Yangliuqing, the lifelike clay sculptures of clay figurine Zhang, or Goubuli steamed buns and 18th Street Mahua? The pictures and real objects in the exhibition hall take us back to the old city in history.

In the Gengzi Year of Guangxu (1900), the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded Tianjin, bombarded the city of Tianjin, and then demolished the city wall of Tianjin. Although the Drum Tower was preserved, its foundation collapsed and its beams and columns tilted. In the tenth year of the Republic of China (1921), the Drum Tower was rebuilt as it was. The moment of humiliation and anger was recorded in the oil painting.

The iron cannons of the Ming Dynasty and the iron cannonballs of the Qing Dynasty unearthed outside the North Gate bear witness to this vicissitudes-ridden city.

The Drum Tower is the first of the three treasures in Tianjin. The first Drum Tower was three stories high, with a big bell hanging on the top floor. People in Tianjin at that time had no concept of time. They worked at sunrise and rested at sunset. The only time is the sound of the Drum Tower ringing the bell twice in the morning and evening, with fifty-four rings each time, as a signal for the opening and closing of the city gate in the morning and evening. When the bell rang, it was crisp and loud, spreading throughout the city and outside the city.

The Drum Tower is a testimony to the prosperity of Tianjin. The city of Tianjin was known as "Saihuai'an" in those days. Mei Xiaoshu, a Tianjin poet in the Qing Dynasty, wrote a couplet that is now hung on the Drum Tower: Go up and down quickly, and watch the sails of the seventy-two ; Bustling who wakes up? Listen to the morning and evening bells of one hundred and eight pestles. Today's Drum Tower is very majestic, and modern architectural technology makes it look more resplendent. Standing on the Drum Tower overlooking the old city, you can have a panoramic view of the Drum Tower Cultural Street. In an old building, the melodious bell rings again.

Tianjin is a city exuding a unique artistic atmosphere. For a city, the art museum is like an expression of the taste of life, and it can tell visitors about the city's artistic growth and spiritual exploration of a better life. Tianjin Art Museum is a good place to get to know the artistic charm of this six-hundred-year-old art museum.

Tianjin Art Museum was designed by the Germans, and its architectural style also inherits the meticulous character of the Germans. The design concept of the museum perfectly integrates the Chinese people's image of beauty, the beauty of symmetry and the beauty of simplicity. Regardless of the use of color or space, it gives people a sense of simplicity but not simplicity. When you enter the hall, you can see the conspicuous stairs, which follow the symmetrical tradition of oriental architecture and present a grand and honest aesthetic feeling.

The building in the museum absorbs the imagery of Chinese classical ink painting and the technique of blank space in Chinese painting, creating an extraordinary artistic conception for people. The steps constitute the main space in the museum, and these steps connect all floors of the entire building , the thickness of the steps and the agility of the space complement each other, and fully demonstrate the elegant and free artistic conception in ink painting.

There are statues of three maids on the booth on the second floor of the museum. This is the sculpture "Night Snack" by the famous Tianjin sculptor Yu Shihong.

Tianjin Art Museum is one of the most modern standard art exhibition halls in my country. It is a comprehensive art museum integrating collection, research, display, aesthetic education, and display of modern art and contemporary art.

In addition to the exquisite architectural design in the art gallery, there are also many artistic souvenirs that tourists can buy for collection or gift to relatives and friends.

As the saying goes: "Tianjin can be seen in a hundred years." After Tianjin was opened as a port, it experienced drastic changes and rapid development in politics, economy and culture, and a group of influential artists at home and abroad emerged, such as Li Shutong, Liu Kuiling, Chen Shaomei, etc. , has also formed an art style that not only carries forward tradition but also reforms and innovates, and has unique local characteristics in Tianjin.

Beauty has something in common. Every country has its own language and characters, but the pursuit of art is the same.

Exhibition of paintings by Ukrainian female painter Emma Antiyevskaya. There are often large and small art exhibitions in the museum, which also allows everyone to have a richer and broader understanding of art from all over the world.

Today, the Tianjin Art Museum has become a unique imprint of the city. The museum has an overwhelming art feast, which also adds a touch of beauty to the city of Tianjin.

There is a hotel in Tianjin known as the oldest hotel in China, and it is famous at home and abroad as the first store in China. Mr. Sun Yat-sen went north to Tianjin and stayed at the Shunde Hotel three times; Hoover, the 31st President of the United States, lived here with his new wife and made his fortune; the last emperor Puyi and Empress Wanrong were also frequent guests of the hotel when they lived in Tianjin, and they danced on the dance floor Perhaps it was Zhang Xueliang and Miss Zhao Si...

This grand hotel with a history of more than 100 years has its own mysterious and noble temperament. When people walk into the hotel through the heavy old revolving door in 1886, what they see is the wooden floor, old-fashioned fireplace, and dazzling crystal lamps that do not belong to this era. In the upper class, beautiful dance music is heard in the ear, and the graceful dancing posture at the ballroom dance appears in front of the eyes.

Tianjin Astor Hotel was founded in 1863. The name "Astor" originated from Mencius' teaching of "Leshun Yide", and it is also homonymous with the founder "Yin Sende". At first it was just a warehouse on the bank of the Haihe River. Under the auspices of Li Hongzhang, then governor of Zhili, Astor was rebuilt in 1886 and became the most luxurious hotel in the Far East at that time.

At that time, the current situation in Tianjin was turbulent, and the hotel had changed owners 9 times and 5 times had been remodeled, but none of them left the original site, and never stopped operation. The hotel has received many domestic and foreign leaders and witnessed many major international events, so it is called the "Diplomatic Hotel". Most of Tianjin's modern dance parties, Western music, dramas, fashion shows, billiards, billiards and other entertainment projects also originated from Astor.

The red flowers and green leaves are matched with the ancient European style, and there is a kind of reincarnation and solidification of time hidden in it. There are lush green plants in the lobby, and you can see a season of spring when you walk into it.

The Astor Museum is located on the first floor of the Astor Hotel. The push-pull anti-theft door elevator at the entrance has a lot of background. It is the oldest elevator in China that can still be used. It has appeared in many film and television dramas.

The museum covers an area of ​​more than 700 square meters and has a collection of nearly 3,000 exhibits, including 41 state-level cultural relics. China's first-generation telegraph, telephone, electric light, elevator, digital machine, running water and fire fighting equipment can all be seen here.

The wooden floor under my feet creaked when I walked on it. This is a sound that only old houses can have. The dark wooden decorations and antique flower windows around bring the breath of the past. Antiquities and oil paintings tell the story of the hotel's vicissitudes and little-known legends spanning three centuries.

Dark brown wooden doors, exquisite handmade carpets, and gleaming wall lamps in the shape of oil lamps. Carved European-style chairs, round wooden tables with complicated shapes, more than 3,000 cultural relics and exhibits in this hotel make it like a history museum that can be lived in.

As the first foreign-related hotel in China, Astor has too many firsts and too many stories. The various copper signs on the walls of the museum highlight the history of the hotel, and the old photos that can be seen everywhere make people feel the past of the city more than a hundred years ago.

Many of the people who have stayed and dined here are influential figures in history. What is discussed and debated are all major events recorded in history. How many historical events are hidden in each photo and each piece of decoration.

From 1863 to 2020, during the 157 years, Astor has maintained its original appearance, old address, old building, and old name. Time flies, but the feelings remain the same.

The Internet celebrity art gallery in Minyuan Square is a good place to take photos, where you can take fresh and artistic photos. Modern fashion and simple elegance intersect and blend here, which also adds a bit of romance to the heavy building.

Strolling along the Five Avenues, you can see many Western-style buildings, exquisite exterior wall carvings, Baroque columns, elegant curved balconies, simple floor-to-ceiling windows... Everywhere in these buildings exudes Charming breath.

In Tianjin, Five Avenues is the most worthwhile place to savor. It is said that there was a rule at that time that the design drawings of the buildings in the leased area could only be used once, so the buildings we see now are all kinds.

You can see a lot of shared bicycles on Wudao Avenue, because the roads here are very long and many. If you don't want to walk, you can choose to ride a bicycle to visit, or you can choose to take a sightseeing carriage, and there are accompanying guides in the car. Guests introduce the history of Five Avenues.

On the stone tablets in front of the gates of many buildings, the names of the owners of these buildings are engraved: Lu Zhonglin, Cai Chengxun, Zhang Xueming, Sun Dianying and other once prominent figures.

The Landmark Clock of Five Avenues is the symbol of Five Avenues, where traditional culture and Western culture intertwine, and where traditional architecture and Western architecture collide. Whether it is history or architecture, you need to savor it slowly.

When you come to Tianjin, you must come to the Five Avenues for a walk. Here you can slow down, forget the irritability of the downtown, appreciate the beauty of the city carefully, and follow the historical footprints to find the lost memories.

On the Five Avenues in Tianjin, there is the only royal mansion, which has the reputation of "the crown of the Chinese", and this is Qingwang Mansion. Prince Qing's Mansion is located at No. 55 Chongqing Road. It was built in 1922 by Xiao De Zhang, the chief eunuch in the late Qing Dynasty. By chance, Zai Zhen was invited to visit the eunuch Xiao De Zhang's home in Tianjin. Here, Zai Zhen took a fancy to this house, and immediately proposed to Xiao Dezhang that he wanted to buy this house. Xiao Dezhang had no choice but to half sell and half give away the mansion to Qing Wang Zaizhen.

After Puyi abdicated, Zai Zhen took his family members to Tianjin to escape and began his apartment life. Since then, this house has been named Qingwang Mansion, and it has been used to this day. The vicissitudes of the century have also made this palace full of vicissitudes of history. Now it has become a leisure resort integrating catering, conferences and other functions, open to tourists.

The main building of Prince Qing's Mansion consists of three floors above ground and one floor below ground, and its design style embodies the characteristics of the fusion of Chinese and Western styles. The steps to enter the main building are 17 and a half steps, which also avoids the number of "Ninth Five-Year Supreme", and also reflects the designer's intention and awe.

The atrium of Prince Qing's Mansion is 12 meters high and covers an area of ​​350 square meters. This is the place where Zai Zhen holds banquets on weekdays. The prince loved to listen to operas and hold dances. It is said that famous actors and actresses at that time came here to perform. There are two grape chandeliers in the atrium, which were specially imported from Germany by Xiao Dezhang. The workmanship is extremely exquisite, and the leaves on them are still spliced. There are hundreds of glazed railings on the guardrail on the second floor, in three colors of yellow, blue and green, which also represent the emperor, Baylor and princess respectively.

In Prince Qing's Mansion, you can feel the extravagant life of the Eight Banners. Zai Zhen is good at making friends, making friends with celebrities, and also invested in Quanyechang and traffic hotels. The gypsum reliefs on the ceiling of the room were all hand-carved by craftsmen in those days, and then used Western art forms to present traditional Chinese blessing patterns. Many nanmu carvings are extremely rare works of art.

At that time, Xiao Dezhang spared no expense when building this house. The door and window glass in the mansion were all imported from Belgium and carved with traditional Chinese flower and bird patterns with Belgian craftsmanship. Qingwang Mansion also became a combination of Chinese and Western in the Tianjin Concession area in the 1920s. Typical of the building.

The interior of this apartment is spacious and magnificent, and the furniture and traditional glazed poles complement each other. The whole not only adapts to the life of the West, but also conforms to the image of traditional Chinese culture.

The heating, doors and windows in Prince Qing's Mansion are all old things from when Xiao Dezhang built his house a hundred years ago. The design of the building is double-layered windows and double-layered doors. It is said that they are made of special moisture-proof wood from the Philippines, and they can still be opened freely. combine.

The main building of Prince Qing's Mansion completely retains its appearance when it was completed in 1922, with a combination of Chinese and Western architectural styles and unique low-key luxury. In the building, the living scenes of Prince Qing Zaizhen's study bedroom and Puquan's study bedroom are restored for tourists to visit.

Today's Prince Qing's Mansion has spent a hundred years telling the vicissitudes of history to the people who come here. This building also hides endless stories and interprets the changes in the history of modern Tianjin.

When visiting the Five Avenues, there is a very dazzling building. Its predecessor is an old French-style building, and now it is known as the "Chinese Ancient Porcelain Museum". This is the unparalleled porcelain house in the world.

Entering the main building, the first is the foyer, which used to be the kitchen of the previous residents. We can see the patterns of the wall bricks in the past. These building materials, especially glass, are very characteristic of the times.

On the first floor of the main building, there are: large restaurant, small restaurant, meeting room, reception room, Wenxiu bedroom, etc. These exhibits are arranged according to the appearance at that time, mainly old furniture and accessories from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China.

There are two large and small restaurants on the first floor. The small restaurant is a place for family dinners and daily chats. The large restaurant is mainly a place for Puyi to hold birthday banquets for Wanrong, entertain guests and entertain officials during festivals.

This is the room of Concubine Shu Wenxiu. In 1931, Wenxiu publicly divorced Puyi. She also became the first concubine to divorce the emperor in the history of our country.

Puyi Ancestral Hall, where Puyi's family background is exhibited. The structure and material selection of Jingyuanmen have typical Japanese characteristics, which are simple, natural and simple. Its gentle slope roof, the use of tiles and interior detail decoration have obvious Spanish medieval architectural style.

Puyi's bedroom, the Japanese-style floor-to-ceiling wardrobe in the room and the wooden structure on the top are all historical originals.

Next to Puyi's bedroom is his study, where the layout is based on historical photos and the style of the Manchukuo Palace. Puyi's study is also the place where he summoned and had secret talks, and no one can enter without approval.

Wanrong's room is composed of a study and a bedroom. The furniture in the room is old furniture from the late Qing Dynasty, full of characteristics of the times.

After Puyi left, Jingyuan changed owners many times, and even once became a large courtyard inhabited by many people. Now when we come here, it seems that we have traveled through time and truly experienced the years of the last century.

Tianjin Zhangyuan is located in the southeast of the intersection of Anshan Road and Shanxi Road in Tianjin. There are rockery, streams, small bridges, fountains, lotus ponds, octagonal dragon pavilions and other buildings in the garden, which are too beautiful to behold. In Tianjin, there is a saying: "Modern China sees Tianjin, and Tianjin sees Zhangyuan in a century." It can be seen that Zhang Yuan had a profound influence on the modern history of Tianjin.

Zhang Yuan was the private residence of Zhang Biao, the admiral of Hubei in the late Qing Dynasty. It was built in 1916. In December 1924, Sun Yat-sen was invited by Feng Yuxiang to go north and live in Zhangyuan. From February 1925 to July 1929, Puyi, the last emperor who was driven out of Beijing by Feng Yuxiang, lived in Zhangyuan. In 1935, the Japanese army stationed in Tianjin forcibly purchased Zhangyuan through the female spy Yoshiko Kawashima, and converted it into an existing building. After that, Zhangyuan was also the office of the Tianjin Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China.

In Tianjin, I am afraid that only Zhang Yuan has personally experienced and witnessed the complete history from the end of Qing Dynasty to the founding of New China. At every turning point of the times, various political figures will appear here.

In 1925, Puyi was expelled from the Forbidden City and moved into Zhang Yuan with his empress Wanrong and concubine Shu Wenxiu. Zhang Biao, the owner of Zhang Yuan, spent money and money to buy furniture for this purpose. Now, from the photos in the room and the furnishings of the furniture, you can still feel Puyi Although lonely at that time, he was still in an extremely honorable and honored position.

The handrails of the stairs in the room, you can see the complicated engravings, as well as the typical European stained glass, all of which were left over from the original.

The second floor of Zhangyuan is an exhibition of Sun Yat-sen's deeds in Tianjin. Sun Yat-sen came to Tianjin three times, the first two times were by way, passing through Tianjin, the last time he lived in Zhangyuan for 27 days.

When Sun Yat-sen was in Zhangyuan, his body was already very weak, but he still managed everything and hesitated to plan for the country. Various political and military figures appeared on the stage in turn, and Zhangyuan was full of people for a while.

In the room on the second floor, the scene of Sun Yat-sen's office and bedroom in Tianjin was restored for the third time, allowing us to experience Mr. Sun Yat-sen's daily affairs and ordinary life scenes up close.

Sun Yat-sen's room has the characteristics of the Republic of China. Walking here, you can also hear the creaking sound of the wooden floor, as if telling Zhang Yuan's extraordinary past and present.

Hanging in front of Sun Yat-sen's bed are the four characters "The world is for the public" inscribed by him, which is also his ideal and goal in his life. He died shortly after he left Tianjin. He was only 59 years old and died young. Very regrettable. His life had a positive and far-reaching impact on Chinese society, occupying an indelible position in the history of modern Chinese thought.

In today's Zhangyuan, those historical figures have long gone, leaving only endless stories for future generations to recall. There are thousands of Western-style buildings in Tianjin, and behind each of them, there is a little-known story. Zhang Yuan is one of them.

Bei'an Bridge is a good place to shoot night scenes in Tianjin. The design of Bei'an Bridge draws on the Alexandre III Bridge in Paris, France, and absorbs the essence of Chinese tradition and Western classics. It has a unique style of European style and Chinese rhyme.

It is not only one of the landmark buildings in Tianjin, but also a hub bridge connecting the three districts of Hebei, Hedong and Heping, and communicating with the Tianjin Station area.

There have been many stories and legends left on the Jiefang Bridge, not only the story of the People's Liberation Army using a company of troops to conquer the bridge in just over 20 minutes, but also the human tragedy of some people jumping under the bridge to commit suicide. "Ma Yongzhen", "Thunderstorm", "The Battle of Pingjin", "Summer Blown by the Wind" and other film and television dramas.

It is like an eye on the bridge. , as if the whole of Tianjin is in its eyes. The Tianjin Eye has both sightseeing and transportation functions. When the lights are on, the Tianjin Eye will light up.

DAY3: Italian style street, appreciate the prosperity and vicissitudes of Tianjin

As the saying goes: "The wind is different for ten miles, but the customs are different for a hundred miles." Every region has its own customs. There is a block full of European style in Tianjin. It used to be the Italian Concession area, and there are still nearly 200 complete European buildings. The Italian customs are perfectly presented here.

Someone once watched "Roman Holiday" starring Audrey Hepburn and said that Italy is the most beautiful country in the world. Various ancient buildings can be seen everywhere during the day, and full of confusion and romance at night. If you feel that Rome is too far away and you don't have time to be there, you might as well take a walk in Tianjin's Italian-style street. There is the only Italian-style building complex in Asia, and it is one of the most exotic neighborhoods in Tianjin.

At the beginning of the 20th century, nine countries successively set up concessions here and built many buildings with their own national style. Later, the government took back this concession and transformed it into the current Italian-style tourist area.

There are groups of small western-style buildings in the Italian-style neighborhood, as if you are in the hometown of Marco Polo. The whole block takes a characteristic commercial street as the main line. The pedestrian paths in the block are paved with cobblestones and flower bricks, and the street lamps are in European style. In the commercial street, you can see high and low columns and square pavilions. These buildings are intertwined to form a The beautiful space of Italian Style Street.

Cao Yu is one of the pioneers of China's new culture movement, one of the founders of Chinese drama, a drama master and drama educator well-known at home and abroad. Great achievements have been made in the development of literature, art and drama.

Cao Yu was born and grew up in Tianjin. Tianjin is the source of his artistic creation and the foundation of his drama creation. The Memorial Hall of Cao Yu's Former Residence is located on Minzhu Road in the Italian-style block of Hebei District. Compared with the bustling Italian-style block, this place looks very quiet. In the former residence of Cao Yu, we can learn about the dramatic life of this drama master. The former residence of Cao Yu was built in the early 20th century. In 1912, Cao Yu and his family moved in and lived here. Entering the gate of the memorial hall, you can see the bronze bust of Cao Yu in the courtyard.

Cao Yu's former residence is composed of two two-story brick and wood buildings. Because the former residence was located in the Italian Concession, the architectural style and layout were also influenced by Western architecture. The interior decoration incorporates traditional Chinese cultural elements. This also reflects the cultural fashion of combining Chinese and Western cultures in Tianjin at that time. Cao Yu spent his childhood and adolescence here.

Cao Yu's surname is Wan, Wan (traditional) is decomposed, the upper part is the initials of Cao, which is Cao; the lower part is Yu, and when added together, it is Cao Yu. Cao Yu's famous work "Thunderstorm" was created here. Many characters and stories in "Thunderstorm" are related to Cao Yu's life here.

Famous writer Feng Jicai once said, "The value of a celebrity's former residence is not only measured by the value of architectural history. When a person who has made important contributions to history goes, his life temperament, past events, unique personal life and spirit are removed. It remains in the things he has done or related texts, and still exists silently in his former residence.

The front building of the Memorial Hall of Cao Yu's Former Residence is dominated by exhibitions. The exhibition consists of 14 sections. Here we can see Cao Yu's photos, manuscripts, books, etc., as well as tables and chairs, English typewriters, pocket watches, tableware, and coal stoves that he used during his lifetime. and other items mainly display Cao Yu's life experience in childhood and adolescence, his special feelings for Tianjin and his outstanding contribution to the drama industry; the "Wan Mansion" in the back building is mainly a restorative display of Cao Yu's family environment in his adolescence.

There are three theaters in the interior: "Thunderstorm Hall", "Sunrise Hall" and "Wild Field Hall". As the former residence of Cao Yu's brilliant art, it has experienced a hundred years of vicissitudes. Here, the taste of the years comes to our faces.

Liang Qichao is a famous thinker and educator in modern China. He was a key figure in the "Reform Movement of 1898". He once taught at Tsinghua University and Nankai University. Ronnie designed and built an Italian-style residence. The Liang Qichao Memorial Hall is located at No. 44--46, Minzu Road, Hebei District, Tianjin.

"Drink ice for a lifetime of family and country dreams, and blood will not change the heart of a child." In the Liang Qichao Memorial Hall, you can feel the patriotic spirit of this academic master throughout his life. His nine children are all outstanding talents in the country, which is also in line with his careful teaching. Inseparable.

Liang's former residence is divided into twelve exhibition rooms, including the study room, living room, and family memorial room, recreating the living environment of Liang Qichao in those days. The exhibition room is divided into six parts, namely "prodigy who studied hard", "leader of the Reform Movement of 1898", "advocate of constitutional monarchy", "organizer of anti-Yuan protect the country", "academic giant famous in China", " The owner of the ice drinking room who lives in Jinmen". Liang Qichao's letters, books, historical documents and event photos are displayed in the former residence exhibition room.

More than 100 pieces of furniture in the Liang Qichao Memorial Hall are all reproduced according to the original furnishings of the year, and are arranged according to the furnishings at that time. Liang Qichao kept accepting new things throughout his life and changed accordingly. The museum displays Liang Qichao's political thoughts and academic achievements in different periods through a large number of pictures and texts, which also reflects the complicated historical process of modern China from one side.

The "Ice Drinking Room" study is the place where Liang Qichao carried out academic research and writing in his later years. At that time, Liang Qichao's family members rarely entered this building, which allowed Liang Qichao to work in peace. Liang Qichao completed many works in his later years here: "History of Chinese Culture", "Confucian Philosophy", "Philosophy of Laozi" and so on.

The four words "no regret today" are derived from "Liang Qichao's Family Letter". It expresses Liang Qichao's adherence to his family and his own behavior. Don't live up to today's time, and don't forget your original purpose and ideas. This also corresponds to the "don't forget the original intention" we mentioned a hundred years later. As time goes by, these four words are also worthy of being remembered by future generations.

Near the Italian Style Street, there was an Italian barracks in the Italian Concession area of ​​Tianjin at that time. Because it was hidden in a small alley, many tourists who came to the Italian Style Street rarely came here. This building is the same kind of brick and wood structure in the country. The best preserved of the three-story Italian buildings.

The original Italian barracks is said to have stationed an Italian mixed battalion with a team of nearly a thousand people. The design here is n-shaped, and the three sides are in the architectural style of ancient Rome. The structure is very exquisite, each floor has curved lintels, and the middle is a wide playground.

In the past, the first floor was used for various public facilities; the second and third floors were dormitories for soldiers. This design allows the officers to look down on the drilled soldiers from every angle upstairs, and the soldiers on the playground can also hear the officers shouting upstairs. After the overall restoration in 2006, it became the offices of public institutions and creative blocks.

The red walls and exquisite design, together with the historical sense of time, have also turned this place into an art space, attracting many people who love painting and photography to come and collect.

The preservation of the original Italian barracks has also become a witness to the modern humiliation history of our country and a patriotic education base. While we appreciate the exquisite design here, the history and characters it carries also leave endless thoughts for our descendants .

Tianjin was the place where Yuan Shikai's political career was initiated. In 1895, Yuan Shikai organized and trained a new army at Tianjin Station. In 1901, he was promoted to the governor of Zhili. Until 1907, he was transferred to Beijing. During this period, Yuan Shikai used his political status and political courage to comprehensively promote modernization in Tianjin and build Tianjin into a super-large city in China. At the same time, Yuan Shikai also built a large number of luxury houses in Tianjin.

Located at No. 39 Haihe East Road, Hebei District, Tianjin, Yuan Shikai bought a piece of land at a low price in the thirty-fourth year of Guangxu (1908), and commissioned British and German architects to design a European classical building, and built it here. A large and magnificent residence.

Walking into the "Yuan's Mansion", you can feel the prosperity and heavy sense of history here. The building is three storeys high and has a brick and wood structure. There are 54 rooms in total, with a construction area of ​​2089 square meters. Covered by green trees, COSCO looks like a butterfly spreading its wings. Because of its unique architectural style, Yuan's mansion is the only Dutch-style ancient building in China, which is quite rare among historical buildings in Tianjin.

Yuan Shikai's mansion was built in 1917-1918. After the building was completed, Yuan Shikai had passed away for two years, and only his family lived in it. It is more accurate to say "Yuan's family" rather than Yuan's, but people are still used to calling it "Yuan Shikai's former residence".

There are as many as a thousand small western-style buildings of various styles in Tianjin, forming an indispensable part of the urban landscape. "Yuan's Mansion" is different from all kinds of small western-style buildings.

The design feature of this building is that there are so-called "invisible places" and "escape places". The "hidden place" is a small door on the right side of the second floor. There are reinforced concrete stairs and iron railings inside the door, which can go up to the roof and down to the basement. If the small door is closed, there is no way to go up and down the stairs. The "escape place" is an iron staircase in the gazebo on the third floor, which leads directly to the remaining gate of the back garden, from which you can escape.

An octagonal house was specially designed between the second and third floors of this building, with several windows facing the Haihe River. Regardless of the ebb and flow of the tide, the river seems to flow into the octagonal building, symbolizing that countless sources of wealth flowed into the Yuan family.

"Yuan's Mansion" is divided into a main building and a second building (the second building has already been demolished), and the main building is "L" shaped. However, the most striking thing about the mansion is the high and steep double-slope roof supported by the surrounding walls. , and the lighting pavilion built on the roof.

This shape originated in the early Italian Renaissance, and evolved in the German architectural style, becoming a "bell bell" with outer edges. The internal structure of the building contains many medieval relics, which has extremely high appreciation value and research value.

In the 1950s, dozens of ordinary households lived here. After the mansion was taken back to the public, all the places that damaged the original appearance were repaired and reinforced, and now it has become a museum. .

A hundred years later, this building has been washed away from the dust of history, and has regained its former "true color", becoming a beautiful landscape in the Italian-style neighborhood.

If you want to experience a piece of history, the most direct way to understand a historical figure is to experience it personally at the old site. When the extravagant decoration comes into view, it seems that you have been exaggerated by the luxury and luxury of the Republic of China period. Walking through the hidden doors surrounded by layers, you will also fully experience the story of that turbulent era. Today, Yuan's mansion exudes its unique charm with its charming style and long-standing culture.
